Hey Alef, It's really just another way of doing the same thing.
"neighbor 192.168.1.2 priority 0" In this example 192.168.1.2 is our neighbor and the priority 0 means we don't want this neighbor to become the DR. Basically this command will set the OSPF priority of the neighbor but ONLY if the router hasn't already been configured locally, if it does the local priority overrides this one.

Is this necessary, or does it speed up the DR selection, or is it a redundant thing? Also, in the solution guide it seems r5 and r6 don't have R5 or R6 as neighbors, respectively. Is that on purpose or something that was forgotten here.
